    I am not an expert and did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. A detail I've heard regarding this catastrophe of a plan is Caddilac plans are defined as health care plans with a total value over $10K for singles or $27K for families and the compaines providing those plans will have to pay a 40% tax on those plans starting in 2017/18-ish. I'm guessing this is going to generate a whole lot more WTF?? moments as companies drop plans and opt to pay the fine/tax/alms/penance to the Government.

    Maybe the house should pass a spending bill expressly to service the debt. Once again the Senate will not take it but it will certainly be another difficult position for the Democrats to justify.

    Interesting question. My wife and I were discussing this last night. I'm not sure how bad you think the economy might get but whatever you decide on has to be considered to be of value to both parties if you want to exchange it for goods or services with another person. For instance, going full Mad Max here in the U.S., a chicken might be more desirable to another person than a wad of Krona. Gold is always a universal crowd pleaser.

    Yeah, but do we build a wall at the Red River to keep all the troublemakers out?

    Then it will lead to horsepower limits. No more than 4 cylinder, 1.2 liter max with speed governor set to 55mph with a kill switch enabled and controlled by the NSA. For the children........

    DC may have to ban cars after this.

    I think the full retard train left the station a while back and a lot of idiot Americans are onboard happily and furiously shoveling coal to make it go faster.

    Does finding a dead whore on the roadside count as a rape song?

    It looks like he got himself in a bind with this "red line" comment. Insulting Britain over the last several years didn't help either. By lobbing the decision back to Congress, it appears he is back to voting "present" and thus not responsible for the outcome.

    He should have taken her out on the lake.....and not brought her back. People end up accidentally ducted taped to anchors all the time.

    A) What the hell is special operations air refueling in regards to a -135? and B) Someone might want to inform the guys at Ft. Campbell that the definition of SOAR has been changed.

    You could pick this thread up and drop it in the mid-90s and it would fit.

    NTSB has been sending out tweets with nuggets of info.

    The hand flying a visual approach is a basic skill. There has been some discussion on another airline forum as to the proficiency of the wide body pilots because they log very few landings, maybe two a month in some cases. This guy probably just came out of the sim not to long ago so currency shouldn't be an issue but I doubt he did any visual only approaches in the sim. Why did the others on the flight deck let that situation develop? Could this be another one of those Asian cultural issues regarding deference shown to authority. We will see.

    I fly into SFO a lot. Nav aids have been out for a while. Last time I was in, the PAPIs were also out. You always get speed up and slow down directions from ATC because they are running simulaneous approaches to both runways and they do not want you flying formation down final. Depending on the direction of the arrival or other traffic, you can get slam dunked making getting to a normal glide path a challenge. Too early to say what might have happened but there are usually lots of ATC instructions directing adjustments that can make an approach into SFO a hand full.

    Hoss, you say "google harmful effects of polygamy." Here's one for you, google "harmful effects of homosexuality." Either is a bad substitute to what has been deemed a societal norm for eons. Now, we have placed an abnormal situation, homosexual marriage, on par with what has been accepted as normal for centuries, heterosexual marriage. I have no idea what the long term effects or unforeseen consequences will be. Only time will tell.

    There are some states with birth certificates now that say Parent 1 and Parent 2 vs Father or Mother.

    If he could collect disability for a verbal "cut off at the knees," I think he would be eligible.

    Some thoughts on religious beliefs vs the demise of DOMA. Kind of a long article but it brings up some good points, particularly, is the freedom of religion an endangered right. https://www.realclearreligion.org/articles/2013/06/26/the_sexual_revolutions_consequences.html

    What is the rule for the minimum pieces of flair on a uniform?

    This getting a worthless AAD (I got mine a long time ago) just because it proves you care would be much better If you could substitute the useless AAD for some more worthwhile skill like making balloon animals. Think of the fun. "Captain, I don't see how you are ever going to be worthy to promote to Major. That looks nothing like godzilla!"

    Did it get delivered to the correct airfield with the gear down?
